These Days – 08/31

So ever since I got back from Colorado, this is what has been going on in my life:

I purchased a very awesome but generic backpack. It looks like this:

I feel quite hipster owning it, to be honest. ;) The funny thing though, is that its brand is a complete knockoff of the Levi’s brand. The logo is that familiar Levi’s shape, but instead of saying what you’d expect – Levi Strauss & Co – it says “AUGUR Strauss & Co”. What on earth?! Plagiarism! Haha. Thankfully that logo was on a tag on the inside, which was easily able to be seamripped off.

I recently got myself an Olloclip. It’s so cool! If you don’t know what that is, it’s a 4-in-1 lens clip set for the iPhone. The lenses are 10x macro, 15x macro, wide angle and fisheye. I’ve been experiencing with the macro lenses, and I just love them! It brings my photography potential to a whole new level. :)

About a week ago was the start of a new season of life for me. A season that at times can be hard and exhausting, yet so awesome, beautiful and oh SO worth it. I started attending a really amazing Bible college. I’m learning so much – every day God just blows my mind with new things to know about His power; His might, His glory. I’m growing in knowledge of the supremacy and beauty of Christ. I’m establishing so many wonderful new relationships that mean the world to me – when you get a good number of my classmates together, that’s when the fun and awesome fellowship happens. (A couple nights ago several of us went to a park at night to play ultimate frisbee, then went for a walk through the city to find a Starbucks. Sadly, it was closed when we got there, but I don’t regret the walk.) :)

Yesterday I went to my very first urban farmer’s market. Until now I’d only been to little ones held in a small town. I decided to go all experimental and buy things I either never have had before, or have not had in a long time. So I bought myself some purple green beans, elderberries, and a honeycomb. I also bought a few things I was familiar with, too, like rainbow chard, a cucumber and some chamomile blend tea.

H E L L O .

This blog is a place where I write about the things I enjoy, my life, things that the LORD has been teaching me, and all the ways in which He has blessed me beyond measure (hence the title of this blog). And occasionally I may post a poem or a short story or two.

Glad you're here!
